Why aren't they grateful for "freedom on the march"?

CIA overthrow of their government in the early '60s?
The aiding of the rise of Saddam?
The arms dealing with Saddam?
The allowing of gunship fly-over slaughter by Saddam following the Gulf War?
The brutal sanctions that killed over a million children?
The disbanding of all security forces and the unchecked looting of their country?
The anarchy?
The death?

And to think they aren't grateful!
:sarcasm:

1. Would you believe the upcoming "The Birds of Iraq" Special?
Yes they are really working for those good news stories out of Mess-O-potania.

CNN was doing a this special report ...

Chirping and cackling like hens over such a good find. :puke:

3. They were on Fellatio Alert Red this morning
Clintmax likes to watch news in the mornings, and CNN Headline News was really outdoing itself. First, there was a huge story about the Kennedy family boozing and doing drugs. This of course included a special return to Chappaquidic, which the commentator touted as Ted's "legacy." Funny how I have never seen anything on CNN about Chimerpor Hotpants boozing and drug doing. This was followed by a short blurb about the Christo-Fascist who burned the book store. This story ended very sympathetically with the token blond "hottie" purring sadly that "his conscience just got the best of him," as if he deserved pity for what he did. Soon there was a Paula Zahn story about how the gas crisis was "everyone's" fault, including the democrats. Who cares if they are not in power, right? Finally, I would like to mention that they did get around to Goss giving up, but no mention of Goss's behavior having anything to do with it--just a shake up in the WH. Luckily, this faux FAUX new hour finally got turned off. I managed not to :puke: somehow.
